The evening before the full moon is perfect for recharging. Sit outside and bathe in the light of the moon. Place your crystals, oracle cards etc out in the moon or on a windowsill to charge up with the moon’s powerful cleansing energy.

Full Moon Releasing Ceremony

Full moons are perfect for releasing ceremonies. Write down a list of anything you wish to release from your life (or say it mentally).

You can ceremoniously burn or bury your list. Put your list in a pot that will burn safely, call in the archangels or your spirit team, and proclaim out loud or silently what you wish to release. For example: “I release my need to control situations,” “I release my vow of addiction to coffee,” or “I release my sense of lack of money.”

Manifesting your Wishes with the New Moon

The new moon is the perfect time for manifesting what you wish to have in your life, whether it be material objects or qualities such as love, compassion and freedom. It is also a ripe time to introduce new beginnings and projects, basically any desires you wish to come into fruition.

You can meditate on your desires, write down a list of positive affirmations, or speak to the moon directly.

NEW MOON WISHING RITUAL

Write down your list of desires and intentions for the next month. You can get into the creative process and use coloured pencils etc if you wish. The idea is that the more energy you put into it, the better the results. The process also creates a sense of magic and ritual. Really get into the feeling of your manifestations as if they are happening right now and use the present tense. This is the key to manifestation.

As with the full moon ceremony, read the list out loud and bury or burn it, or place it somewhere so that you can look back at it during the following month’s new moon, then if there is something that has actualized into reality a month later, show gratitude by thanking the Universe. You can then revise the list and make any alterations which match where your intentions are now.

During the following month, stay open to any opportunities, ideas or signs and make sure you take action.

New Moon Abundance Cheques

On a new moon, and within the 24 hrs after it, you can also physically write out a cheque to the universe for whatever sum you desire, and that you think is reasonable. By writing the cheque you are setting the intention and signaling that you are ready
and willing to receive. This can become a monthly ritual that acts to re-assert your intention and show the universe you mean business!

You can use a real cheque, or one that you draw or type up. There are also a lot of abundance cheque templates you can find online. You may use the one I made below. When you fill out the cheque, write out your name where it says “Pay to,” and in the
area where you would write out the dollar amount, write: “Paid in full.”

Within 24 hours after a New Moon, have your cheque.infront of you . Where it says “Pay to,” write your name, and all names you’ve ever gone by. As for the amount, there are two things you can do. One is to write down a specific amount, the other more effective one is to write “Paid in full,”which opens you up to a limitless amount for your Highest Good. Then, instead of signing the cheque with your name, write: “The Law of Abundance.” When you are finished, put it in a safe or special place and forget about it. The Universe will take care of it from there.
